It has not been often that colleges have flocked south of Nashville into Marshall County and Lewisburg, Tennessee to sign football players. But this year is different as coaches will be making their way to Marshall County High School to evaluate and court defensive end Don'ta Hightower.

At 6-foot-3, 250 pounds, Hightower is not hard to spot. And many are taking notice. He has an offer from Ole Miss. Other interested schools include Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Georgia Tech and Louisville.
